In this paper,we consider a cone problem of matrix optimization induced by spectral norm(MOSN).By Schur complement,MOSN can be reformulated as a nonlinear semidefinite programming(NLSDP)problem.Then we discuss the constraint nondegeneracy conditions and strong second-order sufficient conditions of MOSN and its SDP reformulation,and obtain that the constraint nondegeneracy condition of MOSN is not always equivalent to that of NLSDP.However,the strong second-order sufficient conditions of these two problems are equivalent without any assumption.Finally,a sufficient condition is given to ensure the nonsingularity of the Clarke’s generalized Jacobian of the KKT system for MOSN.
